For those of you who saw Sigur Ros last night at the Greek Theater in Berkeley, I'm sure we can all agree that it was an epic, amazing show. The set was spectacular, the setting was perfect, but the best part of the whole show happened when the band came out for their encore. At that very moment, it actually started to rain. We all got completely drenched in the outdoor amphitheater, but it felt beautiful and natural. Everyone was lifting faces and hands to the rain, and it was such a momentous, perfect finale to the haunting, eerie, nearly spiritual experience that was listening to Sigur Ros in a sudden downpour, as if somehow the rain was caused by the music and we were all just witnesses to the event.
